It is also intended as an intermediate language for generating
definitions from domain-specific tools, and for porting definitions
between interactive theorem proving systems.

Lem is under active development and has been used in several
applications, some of which can be found in the examples directory.
It is made available under the BSD 3-clause license, with the
exception of a few files derived from OCaml, which are under the
GNU Library GPL.

Lem depends on OCaml. Lem is tested against OCaml
3.12.1. and 4.02.0. Other versions might or might not work. Lem requires
the OCaml ZArith library for arbitrary precision arithmetic. Lem has been
tested against ZArith version 1.2. Other versions might or might not work.

To build Lem run 'make' in the top-level directory. This builds the
executable 'lem', and places a symbolic link to it in that directory.
Instructions on building the libraries for particular targets are in the
manual.

Documentation can be found in doc/built-doc, including:

a high-level description of Lem in the draft paper lem-draft.pdf;

the manual, in lem-manual.html and lem-manual.pdf;

the Ott grammar and type system for Lem, in lem.pdf, built from the definition in language/lem.ott;

the Lem library documentation, in lem-libs.pdf;

the type signatures of the pervasives and pervasives-extra libaries, in lem-libs-pervasives.txt and lem-libs-pervasives-extra.txt; and

source documentation, in html-doc and lem-doc.pdf, with a dependency diagram of the source modules in dep.pdf.
